I wanted to watch this as Lara Jean (the main character in the movie, "To All The Boys I've Loved Before") said this was her favourite movie and many people have said it is a cult classic. HOWEVER, this movie is disturbing. There are HUGE issues when it comes to casual racism and consent for sexual conduct. One of the geek kids affectedly has sex with an unconscious/really really drunk girl and the movie expects us to forgive this because the next movie she said she enjoyed it. Like NO also how can anyone like Jake as a suitable person for Sam when he traded his drunk girlfriend for a pair of Sam's underwear. Sure he apologized afterwards but honestly still not ok. Like you trashed my house so I decided to let send you off with a guy I didn't know. Jake also made a very disturbing comment about his girlfriend to the geek kid........ Then here's Long Duk Dong. This movie just uses every stereotype in the book for him. Also why would Lara Jean an asian herself have this movie as her favourite when she sees how they treat Long as a character? Bit weird. OVERALL. This movie did not stand the test of time. It is not acceptable in today's society. Honestly it shows you how messed up the 80's were

Honestly I loved the movie. It wasn't perfect but the performances given by the actors were amazing. I actually didn't think it was shallow at all, more realistic. There are some moments in it that are a bit questionable (the scene with Josh Gad, the main guys brother and the "tape" was disturbing as well as the scene at the sleepover party) However overall it stood out as a funny and honest movie. Both Jake and Anne were incredibly charismatic in their roles
